CD200 engine, which frame?

[salem1987]

Hi, looking to re frame my cd200 as its gone beyond being fixable from all the rot.

I'm trying to locate a cd200 frame, but was also wondering what other bikes these motors slot into?

All the old honda commuter frames look quite similar too me, such as cb125td's and cb250's.

Older CG125 frames look the same too from photos...??

Just had a look at my old CD175 frame but I don't think it'll swap. The engine might bolt in to the rear mounts but it has twin frame tubes under the engine not the down tube on CBs/CGs & later CDs. Sorry. At least you can eliminate that from your search

Drops into a CB125 Super-Dream frame a treat. Just needs the Super-Dream's generator, 12v starter, and a Y piece from one of the ignition triggers to fire both CDi's on the Super-Dream ignition at the same time. With decent mono-shock linkage, at the back and well fettled brake up front, probably the best handling and best stopping of the bunch of Benly based small-hondas. Unfortunately you'd have to reg as the 125 Super-Dream, and the insurance would go up, even if you didn't tell them about the bigger engine though!
Would drop into a CM125, frame, or a CB Two-fifty chassis.
Not so sure whether it would swap so easily into an XL frame, but stuffing one into an XL185 T-Shock chassis I reckon would make a pretty interesting 70's 'Street-Scrambler'.
When I slotted a CD200 lump into a Super-Dream, to test it, on the lower 125's gearing it pulled like a dirt bike, while the lumpiness of the 360 crank made me think of the old brit-bikes.
Think it could make a quite interesting and useful budget brat-chop street-scrambler; be quite capable on the loose, yet, just that tad more civilised on tar.
